We made it to the southeast side of the island and took a little break. My human grandparents met two friends — one all the way from Seattle, one from the island — and they told navy stories I couldn’t decode (I just nodded like a good dog). We explored the Sooke Potholes, swam in the river, and even visited a Cowichan art gallery, very fancy for a dog like me. We hiked to some Niagara falls but not the one you think of and we walked along the sandcut beach. Now we’re rolling along Hwy 3 with smoky skies around us… but I’m staying brave for my humans.
